Faith Farm Christian Residential Swansea

The Fort Lauderdale-based Faith Farm ministries organization operates this Swansea location, and its approach puts Christian belief at the center of treatment rather than alongside it. Men live on site and take part in individual counseling, group counseling, education about addiction, and a faith-based Twelve Step format. Church services held on campus are part of the weekly rhythm, and residents are encouraged to keep growing spiritually during their stay.

A practical work component runs through the program. Residents may take on roles in a thrift store or furniture showroom, which the ministry treats as job training as much as daily structure. The program is nonprofit and supported by private donations and store income rather than by charging a fixed published rate.

The center lists trauma among the conditions it addresses, and its Christian framework is meant to give men language for past harm and for relationships with God and with other people. Gender-specific programming keeps the setting men-only. The typical length of stay is listed as 30 days.

Faith Farm Christian residential Swansea

Faith Farm Christian residential Swansea offers residential rehab as its listed level of care for men in Massachusetts. Within that setting, men receive one-on-one counseling and group therapy, and the schedule includes life skills work and psychoeducation about substance use. Spiritual care and Twelve Step facilitation round out the offerings, and the Twelve Step piece follows a Christian format. The approaches listed are Christian, gender-specific, holistic and spiritual, with a Twelve Step emphasis.

Drug addiction and alcohol are both named as specializations, and the center lists care for cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, opioids, benzodiazepines and prescription drugs. Trauma appears among the conditions it addresses as well. When a man needs medically supervised withdrawal before residential care, that is a separate service to arrange, and it should be settled before a start date is fixed; coming off alcohol or benzodiazepines can involve medical risk and deserves clinical attention. If it is unclear whether this level of care fits, ask the program what its assessment includes.

Living arrangements at Swansea

Residents share rooms and shared bathrooms during their stay. The ministry's larger Fort Lauderdale men's dormitory holds up to 130 people, and its Omega dormitory houses 38, which gives a sense of the scale of the shared-living model this program follows. The Swansea address is 24 Main Street, Swansea, MA 02777.

Paying for care at the Swansea center

The center's listing does not publish prices or payment options, so anyone weighing the program should ask directly what it charges and whether insurance or state Medicaid can be applied. Faith Farm runs as a nonprofit supported by donations and income from thrift stores, which shapes how its beds are funded. When coverage questions go unanswered before arrival, a family may end up deciding under time pressure.
